Sorry for the threadjack, but I have to ask. Does the material have a smooth denim-like feel or is it wooly like an old army blanket?

If it's a smooth quasi-denim feel, it's poly-v and the best tartan poly-v is from Marton Mills, around 11oz. I've not seen PV that's heavier (in fact it's a common complaint among the kiltmakers that work with PV that it isnt available in a heavy weight as it's such a fantastic kilting fabric).

If it's wooly than it's possibly acrylic and not PV. My acrylic kilts are from SWK and I believe they are around 15oz.
